Welcome to the Grouch's place

Welcome to my blog. This is a blog about me, my likes and dislikes. I'll make comments from time to time about my work, my politics, my hobbies, things I enjoy, things I hate, things that make me smile and things that make me sad, just whatever is on my mind.

I am a politically incorrect person. Politically I am mostly libertarian with a heavy right wing slant. Anything I post is strictly my opinion. I don't intend to justify anything that I post to any of you. I'm not gonna quote sources or research sources. If you want that then visit my sweet little wifey's blog, Right Truth.

If you have tender sensibilities and get your feelings hurt easily, then this is NOT the place for you. I make no apologies if I piss you off. We spend way too much time in this world worrying about who we might offend.

I Guess They'll Demand Access to My Music Room

Bob Barr explains that census workers have the power to demand access to any building or room owned by you which you rent out. They can enter the building or room even if the tenants are not there. You can be fined $500 if you refuse to comply.

I hope, I just hope, that Harrison Reed comes around demanding access to my music room. PLEASE HARRISON! PLEASE COME A KNOCKIN'!

I had not heard that. They will have to send someone who is (1) and adult, (2) had documentation that he actually works for the CENSUS, (3) give a good reason why they need to see inside the music room, since no one LIVES there.

"What many Americans don’t realize, is that census workers — from the head of the Bureau and the Secretary of Commerce (its parent agency) down to the lowliest and newest Census employee — are empowered under federal law to actually demand access to any apartment or any other type of home or room that is rented out, in order to count persons in the abode and for “the collection of statistics.” If the landlord of such apartment or other leased premises refuses to grant the government worker access to your living quarters, whether you are present or not, the landlord can be fined $500.00.

That’s right — not only can citizens be fined if they fail to answer the increasingly intrusive questions asked of them by the federal government under the guise of simply counting the number of people in the country; but a landlord must give them access to your apartment whether you’re there or not, in order to gather whatever “statistics” the law permits.

In fact, some census workers apparently are going even further and demanding — and receiving — private cell phone numbers from landlords in order to call tenants and obtain information from them. Isn’t it great to live in a “free” country?"

Sounds like jack booted thugs to me. Some of these census workers are bad guys, have beaten up and injured innocent people. Now we are supposed to open our door to them even if we are not at home to protect our property.
